Hell you could argue that their fans would outnumber ours in most locations all around the US. It really is sad.

You don’t have to argue it... it’s been proven to be the case other than Columbus, OH

Wasn’t there a France-Algeria game where a bunch of Algerians rioted and stormed the field?

If Western European teams had to host North African and Middle East teams, they’d have the same issues.

we’re the only country in the world who plays away games in the american southwest, not due to overwhelming travel by away fans, but by citizens living within the borders of our country.



its not just the southwest

the gold cup final in NYC was a Mexico home game

meh yea it does

usually in western europe with tons of Eastern Europeans or multi generational Africans

Youtube videos Poland vs Ireland in Dublin

Like six months before the match i was in some shop drunk get late night snacks and the owner was non stop about how excited he was for the match. He said it will be 50% Poles and we will all be local

He was right

This is like a Tiger fan after a team other than LSU can't beat Bama. Constant bitching. There is no bitching in sports. Suck it up.

We still outnumber them there pretty easily. We also did it in the 2007 Gold Cup final in Chicago.

Yeah it was.

Anytime the US plays and the fans outnumber Mexico's, it's an advantage.

And it was closer to 60/40 than 55/45

Wait... so you're telling me that Mexico has a homefield advantage even when the US fans outnumber them.

C'mon dude, you're dense, but I know you're not this stupid.
